The Hungarian International Master has succeeded in writing something special that should appeal to a wide range of players… Karpov's Strategic Wins Volume 1 is not only a tribute to Karpov's strategic brilliance, it is also a fine instructive work… Many of the notes that Karolyi offers will be of great benefit to amateur players as well as professionals… Wonderful prose like this makes the book special… Karpov's Strategic Wins Volume 1 belongs in every chess player's library. Highly Recommended." IM John Donaldson, jeremysilman.com
